Description Daniel Serodio CLA 2007-02-16 08:34:18 EST
When I accept a ticket using the Trac ticket rich editor, it would be nice to have Mylar automatically add it to my Task List.
While filing this ticket, I just noticed that the Actions section for Bugzilla editor contains "Add to Category", while Trac's editor does not.
Comment 1 Steffen Pingel CLA 2007-02-16 11:35:23 EST
The Trac editor for creating new tasks also has an option to add newly created tasks to a category. When opening existing tasks you can use "Move to" from the editor's context menu to copy the task to the task list.

In the next release this should also work for tasks opened from search results: bug 170659 . 

Does that work for you?
Comment 3 Daniel Serodio CLA 2007-02-23 13:10:01 EST
Thanks for the clarification, I didn't know about "Move to". Adding tasks opened from search results (bug 170659) is a great improvement, but (IMHO) this bug fits _my_ Trac tickets workflow better.

Since the personal workflow for working with tickets/issues/bugs varies greatly, I consider this bug to be a "nice to have" feature, while 170659 is a "must have".
Comment 4 Steffen Pingel CLA 2007-02-23 13:28:01 EST
Yes, improving the workflow by triggering actions when the ticket state is changed would be great. Related: bug 109552, bug 144333, bug 154095 .
